Spencer's new favorite game

Brant comes up with the most creative games to play with Spencer. We had these empty storage containers in our living room that Spencer loved to sit in. I thought, "Aww, how cute" and Brant thought, "Hey, let's push him around the living room!" That's why it's good to have a daddy. Needless to say, Spencer's new favorite thing it being pushed around in a storage container. He'll hold on really tight and can't help but crack up laughing when it's over. Then he'll sit down again ready for another ride. After doing this a couple dozen times, Brant had rug burn on his knees--literally, they were bleeding. Brant will do anything to get a laugh out of Spencer.

Project power


We've been working on a ton of projects since we'll be moving out of our house soon. Brant and Spencer sanded and painted my desk in this first picture. I only have a "before" picture, but I think it's so cute how much Spencer loves to help his Daddy. When Brant mows the lawn he always puts Spencer in the baby backpack and Spencer LOVES it. Other projects we've done include edging the lawn (not a small feat for those of you who know the number of edges our front lawn has). We've painted our bedroom, touched up the hallway and kitchen, Brant weeded the back run and put down anti-weed fabric, and then of course there's the packing. It's amazing how much stuff we've collected in the past 4 years.
Spencer likes to help me cook. Usually he just stands on my feet so lately I've given him his own bowl and spoon. So cute.

Here are some pictures of Spencer giving us kisses. He'll just go back and forth between me and Brant and give us a kiss or a hug. We sure love our little boy.

Park City


We spent a week in Park City after Brant's graduation. His parents were with us for a few days which was fun. We checked out the Olympic Park and Main Street. We also went shopping at the outlets and swimming in the heated pool. It was nice to get away for a little while and just enjoy being a family without all the responsibilities of home and work.

Hooray for Brant!

Brant graduated with his Master of Accountancy on April 24th! I'm so proud of him!
